A FAMILY of miniature donkeys are settling into their new home on Anglesey.

An appeal for help from The Donkey Sanctuary charity to house the three foot tall donkeys was answered by Marion and Oscar Wilde, who offered their one-acre of land outside of Rhosneigr.

Grandmother Cowslip, 12, her two daughters Tulip, seven, and Lilac, eight, and granddaughter Mavis, three, are now happily settled into life on the island.

Marion, who works in childcare, said: “We had put ourselves forward as foster carers with the donkey sanctuary and they got in touch about the family.

“They wanted them all to stay together.

“They are very sweet and not too much work so we love having them here and everyone loves them.”

Molly Lloyd, from the donkey sanctuary, said: “We are very grateful to Marion and Oscar, we wanted to keep the family together because they stick together like glue and they have given them a lovely home.”
